What happens to your body when you use ice? by Nicola Garrett. Ice has been called the most dangerous and destructive drug of our time. But what exactly does it do to your body?
Definition. An inverse agonist is a molecule that binds to the same site as an agonist and is considered to be a full agonist. However, it elicits the opposite effect to that of a normal agonist, i.e.: demonstrates negative efficacy.n antagonist reduces the effect of an agonist by preventing it from binding to receptors. Both antagonists and inverse agonists reduce the activity if a receptor and, in the presence of an agonist, reduce its activity.
Strictly speaking, agonist & antagonist refer to the action of a molecule at a receptor. An agonist molecule produces the same effect as whatever molecule normally binds to that receptor. An antagonist molecule blocks the effects of the molecule that normally binds to that receptor. An inverse agonist produces the opposite effect to the molecule that normally binds to a receptor.
